Procedure 1. Copy the GSDML file of the KUKA robot controller.
The file can be found on the WorkVisual CD-ROM, in the following directory:
DeviceDescript
2. Insert the file in Step 7 or PC WORX.
If, until now, a file for KSS 8.1 or VSS 8.1 has been used, it is not necessary
to delet it.
Descript
software requires the GSDML file for the KUKA robot controller. A distinction
must be made between whether the robot controller is running KUKA System
Software (KSS) or VW System Software (VSS).
Depending on which GSDML file has been used for configuration of the higher-
level controller, the setting that has to be selected in the Profinet version
box on the Communication settings tab in WorkVisual varies:
(>>> 5.5.1.1 "“Communication settings” tab" Page 19)
The following table provides an overview of the GSDML file and setting required
in WorkVisual.
The setting in WorkVisual must always correspond to the GSDML file
or device selection on the PLC. If this is not observed, the PROFINET
device will no longer conform to the standard.

The older GSDML files can also be used with ProfiNet 3.1 and 3.2. In
this case, the settings for ProfiNet 3.0 apply to ProfiNet 3.1. For ProfiNet
3.2, the settings for ProfiNet 3.1 apply.
The different GSDML files must not be installed at the same time in
the configuration software used.
If a KR C4 is updated to a higher version of the system software including
PROFINET and the configuration of the PLC is to remain unchanged,
the appropriate setting for the PROFINET device used must
be selected in WorkVisual.
Example: For a KSS 8.3 with ProfiNet 3.2 and the PROFINET device KUKA
KRC nexxt Device V8.1, the setting v8.1 must be selected in WorkVisual.
